I previously read WARRIOR OF THE WILD by Tricia Levenseller, and I kind of loved it. So of course I had to eventually seek out other books by them. Now here we are.
This book does contain depictions of a toxic, abusive relationship and may not be the best read for everyone.
An amazon summary, "There will be plenty of time for me to beat him soundly once I've gotten what I came for.
Sent on a mission to retrieve an ancient hidden map―the key to a legendary treasure trove―seventeen-year-old pirate captain Alosa deliberately allows herself to be captured by her enemies, giving her the perfect opportunity to search their ship.
More than a match for the ruthless pirate crew, Alosa has only one thing standing between her and the map: her captor, the unexpectedly clever and unfairly attractive first mate Riden. But not to worry, for Alosa has a few tricks up her sleeve, and no lone pirate can stop the Daughter of the Pirate King.
In Daughter of the Pirate King, debut author Tricia Levenseller blends action, adventure, romance, and a little bit of magic into a thrilling YA pirate tale." AMAZON LINK OF JUSTICE
Alosa has been purposely captured by a rival pirate gang. As the daughter of the pirate king, the rival pirate king thinks they can hold her hostage for ransom. Little do they know, Alosa wants to be there to search there ship for a missing piece of map.
Along the way, Alosa discovers her captor Riden, is not the typical pirate. He keeps a clean cabin, keeps his word, and is very respectful to her and her strange ways. Very strange ways.
Alosa is half siren.
Dun dun dunnnnn
That's enough summary.
Alright, so I loved this book, hence why the summary is so short, and also because many wonderful mishaps and adventures happen along the way that would be too minimizing to summarize here.
So, the book is chalked full of colorful characters, set in a sea full of islands, and ruthless pirates. I loved Alosa as a character since she was a very fierce, strong, independent woman and went out of her way to recruit other strong independent women to be in her crew. Her crew are mostly comprised of females except for a handful of gentlemen, which is basically unheard of out to sea.
The relationship with her father was like RIFE with a torrid of emotions and questions and all the things that should be happening given their power struggle and lifestyles.
It was fantastic. Spoiler alert, I read the sequel.
Happy reading!
